Lyrics

The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
You want to go on a mission
To the back of your mind with a crystal clear vision
You need a heavy dose of reminiscin'
Call me Dr Nostalgia, here's your prescription
Take one of these, with a drink
A vivid memory from a time when you didn't have to think
About your troubles, your work or therapy for couples
Take ya mind back and relax on the double
Take one of these, a deep breath
The smell of grass in the backyard, take three steps
Into your home, older sister on the phone for an hour
The smell of Dad's Old Spice talcum powder
Mum's lasagne in the oven, the cheese getting darker like your skin from the sun and
That sound of the old tape player,
Your favourite songs that you recorded from the radio
Mixtapes with the high speed dubbin'
Now chill, don't over think it
Slow your roll while you peep what I'm inkin'
Lay back in your seat like your sinkin'
Tap your feet to the beat while I write this prescription
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
You want to go on a mission
To the back of your mind with a crystal clear vision
You need a heavy dose of reminiscin'
Call me Dr Nostalgia, here's your prescription
Take one friend that's gone
Pour your drink on the concrete and play their song
Reminisce on the days that have gone
Ask yourself why the hell did it take so long
To get back to your roots, the soil of home
And if you'd done this much sooner, then boy you'd have known
That the very script that you needed to grab
Is a list of the moments that you needed to have
To move forwards, you might need to go back
Remind yourself of your purpose, what you have and what you lack
Cos distractions, we've all got enough of those
We go in any ol' direction til we're stubbin' all our toes
Gettin' tripped up and stepped over
We're supposed to shine bright like a stellar supernova
So to re-route, get back on mission
Get yourself what need son and take this prescription
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
I'm here to give you what you're missin'
Fuck rhymes, I write prescriptions
The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
The grass, the dirt, concrete, the smell
That old neighbourhood that I know so well
You want to go on a mission
To the back of your mind with a crystal clear vision
You need a heavy dose of reminiscin'
Call me Dr Nostalgia, here's your prescription
